10 years from now, I expect a 5 year old EV will be cheap and far superior to what people spend 6 figures on today. In the mean time I'll just continue to focus on reducing how much we drive each year.

This is the way. A Chevy bolt was the highest range non-Tesla mass produced vehicle just a few years ago. Now it's one of the shortest range ones, with no tech options, and the charge curve is just atrocious. For about the same as what a Bolt cost just 4 or 5 years ago you can buy an Ioniq 5 with way more range, 5 times quicker charging, faster, more powerful, and has a whole host of tech options.
